FCTA to Move Apo Mechanic Village to Wasa

The Federal Territory Administration (FCTA) plans to relocate inhabitants and businesses at the Apo Mechanic Village to Wasa, as the current site was never approved for their activities.

The Coordinator of the Abuja Metropolitan Management Company (AMMC) Mr Reuben Okoya said in Abuja on Tuesday that the mechanic village was not an appropriate premises for business.

“But the FCTA has graciously agreed to relocate them to Wasa, a place that is more convenient,” he said.

Okoya said the city’s continued demolition and clearance of illegal structures around the Apo area was necessary to ensure that the FCT master plan was adhered to.

“Abuja, as our capital city, should be the pride of every Nigerian and people should not be allowed to alter its structural plan,” he said.
 

Reports also indicate that the Mechanic Village was being cleared to allow a road that will link Apo to Abaji to be constructed.
